I drilled the holes in the wheel brackets today. I stacked them and drilled them all at the same time (and pinned them together through the first hole) to make sure they all match.

Over lunch I welded up the draw bar (I stick welded it, so some of the welds aren't pretty, but they'll all hold).

I also ordered & received the wrong size of plastic plugs for the square tubing (they cost as much to return as they're worth, so I may just glue them in).

Tonight I'm going to see if I can get the wheels and drawbar bolted or clamped to the frame and let teeka tow it around to see how it'll maneuver.

Today's Boss-ism:
I got him some new boxes (the custodians threw out the ones he had been using to move), and when I taped them together, I tapes the top flaps together to make the box extra tall. He thought that this was a great idea because now the flaps "won't keep catching on doorways while he's moving them." Apparently, the concept of folding the flaps inside the box (or taping them together) is completely foreign to him.
